I have noticed that most of the more experienced kayakers and even some not so experienced ones seem to be able to edge their kayaks much further than I can. I can't even get waterline above the shear line much less up over the sprayskirt as I often see others doing. This has been the case in several of the kayaks I have paddled. I can get more angle by leaning out instead of edging, but then only a little more before I reach the tipping point. Besides just a total lack of flexibility, is there some technique I am missing to get a larger heeling angle while still maintaining stability.
